Shuck the corn and carefully cut the kernels off the cob using a sharp knife. Set aside the kernels. If desired, save the cobs for extra flavor during cooking.
Dice the yellow onion, mince the garlic, and slice the celery stalks into small pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and sliced celery. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are soft and fragrant.
Add the sweet corn kernels to the pot and stir well. If using, place the reserved corn cobs in the pot for added flavor.
Pour in the vegetable stock, bring the mixture to a boil, and reduce the heat to a simmer. Let it cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove the corn cobs (if used) and use an immersion blender to carefully puree the soup until smooth. Alternatively, transfer the soup in batches to a blender and blend until creamy, then return it to the pot.
If desired, stir in unsweetened almond milk to add extra creaminess. Add salt and black pepper to taste.
Simmer the soup for an additional 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Adjust seasonings as needed.
Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with freshly chopped parsley, and serve warm.
